What topics do you like to discuss? Sometimes I love to play devil’s advocate when discussing a particular subject. Point counterpoint. If you like something I take the other viewpoint. It’s fun and engaging. It also expands the mind because we are not locked into our preconceived notions. I don’t watch news that only supportsContinue reading “Everything and Nothing”

Packing Cubes
A few years ago a friend introduced me to packing cubes. She told me how she could get so much more in her suitcase, her clothes were less wrinkled than just laying them flat, and that she could pull them out, open the cube, and place it in a drawer. And all this was true.Continue reading “Packing Cubes”
Risk or No Risk
Describe a risk you took that you do not regret. Many years ago I met a man. We had conversation and he was very nice. He was well spoken and smart. One day I ran into him at my daughter’s school. She was 11. I said hi to him and making small talk, I askedContinue reading “Risk or No Risk”
My Sister Linda
Write about a time when you didn’t take action but wish you had. What would you do differently? I’m not sure how to address this since often I took action and regretted it. Often I needed to pause before I responded. But mostly this is with words. But let me think back. Last year myContinue reading “My Sister Linda”

What makes you nervous? Nervous? Sometimes everything. Sometimes nothing. When I’m getting ready to go on a roller coaster at Universal Studios I can feel my stomach do a little flip flop.

Travel Travel Travel
How do you use social media? My favorite thing in the world to do is to travel and see new places. I like to share these moments with family and friends because I know they won’t go to many of the places I travel to.
Writer’s Block
Jot down the first thing that comes to your mind. Finding something to write about isn’t always easy. Especially when you want to write something profound, interesting and current. Today is one of those days. I’m battling a sinus infection and I’m on my second round of antibiotics and a longer course of steroids. WhichContinue reading “Writer’s Block”
Learning Not To Judge People
When I was a young adult working in New York City as well as living there, I happened to meet an older gentleman at the bank. This was long before direct deposit, so weekly I made my way across 46th Street to the bank. While waiting in line, this man who by all appearances lookedContinue reading “Learning Not To Judge People”
